flag Israel opens bidding for 3,401 homes in E1, a West Bank area, advancing a move that could block a Palestinian state.

flag Israel has issued a tender for 3,401 housing units in the E1 settlement area east of Jerusalem, marking the final step toward construction. flag The project, long delayed by U.S. pressure, is now advancing under Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, who supports it as a way to prevent a contiguous Palestinian state. flag Located between Jerusalem and the Jordan Valley, E1’s development could split the West Bank, undermining efforts for a two-state solution. flag The tender, reported by Peace Now and posted on Israel’s Land Authority website, could lead to construction starting within weeks. flag The international community generally considers Israeli settlements in the West Bank illegal under international law.
